About Bill DeShawn
Expertise
I can address all 2-D questions and some 3-D questions. I do programming in AutoLISP if it doesn`t involve solid modeling. I can also address menu customization issues and can help you find answers to questions I can`t answer by taking your question directly to Autodesk via their newsgroups.

Experience
I used to do electronic and mechanical design for a flat panel monitor manufacturer, and now I do architectural drafting for an architect. I did and do AutoLISP and menu customization and take pride in making my lisp routines to do the work exactly the way the client likes them done.

Publications
I had a routine published in CADENCE magazine (no longer in publication and taken over by CADALYST). Some of my routines are published on my website at http://my.sterling.net/~bdeshawn

AutoCAD - Exporting Autocad drawing


Expert: Bill DeShawn - 7/23/2008

Question
Sir, I am making a brochure on "In Design", and trying to insert an "Autocad" drawing in it. I tried to export the drawing as ".eps" or ".tiff" with the same result: colors are changing and the resolution is poor. What can I do? Thank you.

Answer
Use OLE.  So, in other words, Copy the objects in AutoCAD and paste them into InDesign.  It should work.  It works in Microsoft Word.  If it works there, why not Adobe InDesign?

Let me know how it goes.
